Diabetes Congress 2017

Diabetes mellitus is a group ofmetabolic diseasescharacterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The chronic hyperglycemia of diabetes is associated with long-term damage, dysfunction, and failure of various organs, especially the eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessels.

People with type 1 or type 2 diabetes are diagnosed with more of some types of cancer -- and are more likely to die from cancer -- than people without diabetes, a new Australian study shows.

The brain is a hugely important organ which helps to be aware of, understand and interact with our surroundings and others.

As with many of our organs, the brain is susceptible to damage as a result of diabetes & brain

Diabetes foot care & management: Foot ulcers and amputations are a major cause of morbidity, disability, as well as emotional and physical costs for people with diabetes. Early recognition and management of independent risk factors for ulcers and amputations can prevent or delay the onset of adverse outcomes.

In Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Arrhythmias are irregular heart rhythms and can be caused by a variety of reasons, including age, heart damage, medications and genetics. In heart failure patients CRT, or biventricular pacing, is used to help improve the heart’s rhythm and the symptoms associated with the arrhythmia.

Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator An ICD is a battery-powered device placed under the skin that keeps track of your heart rate. Thin wires connect the ICD to your heart. If an abnormal heart rhythm is detected the device will deliver an electric shock to restore a normal heartbeat if your heart is beating chaotically and much too fast. It is important to understand that the decision to have angioplasty or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) depends on many different things. A healthful eating pattern, regular physical activity, and often pharmacotherapy are key components of diabetes management. It is best to get vitamins and minerals from the foods you eat. In fact, research has not been able to prove that dietary orherbal supplements (including omega-3 supplements, cinnamon, and other herbs) help to manage diabetes.

Gastro paresis is a disorder affecting people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes in which the stomach takes too long to empty its contents (delayed gastric emptying) Diabetic retinopathy is the most common diabetic eye disease and a leading cause of blindness in American adults. It is caused by changes in the blood vessels of the retina. Diabetic neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur if you have diabetes. High blood sugar can injure nerve fibers throughout your body, but diabetic neuropathy most often damages nerves in your legs and feet. Currently, diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease in the United States and other Western societies. It is also one of the most significant long-term complications in terms of morbidity and mortality for individual patients with diabetes. Diabetes is responsible for 30-40% of all end-stage renal disease (ESRD) cases in the United States.

Cardiomyopathy is a condition where the heart muscle is abnormal. The main types of cardiomyopathy include dilated, hypertrophic and restrictive cardiomyopathy. Cardiomyopathy makes it harder for your heart to pump and deliver blood to the rest of your body. Cardiomyopathy can lead to heart failure. Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a disorder in which, despite the presence of islet antibodies at diagnosis of diabetes, the progression of autoimmune β-cell failure is slow.

Hypoglycemia is a medical emergency that involves an abnormally diminished content of glucose in the blood. Pregnant women who have never had diabetes before but who have high blood glucose (sugar) levels during pregnancy are said to have gestational diabetes. According to a 2014 analysis by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the prevalence of euglycemia gestational diabetes conferences is as high as 9.2%. High blood pressure or hypertension increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. Hypertension risk factors include obesity, drinking too much alcohol, smoking, and family history. Beta-blockers are a common treatment for hypertension.

Blood glucose (blood sugar) monitoring is the main tool you have to check your diabetes control. This check tells you your blood glucose level at any one time. The artificial pancreas bridges the gap between two pieces of diabetes technology that already exist: the insulin pump and the continuous glucose monitor (CGM). Relatively, a large percentage of world population is affected by diabetes mellitus, out of which approximately 5-10% with type 1 diabetes while the remaining 90% with type 2. Insulin administration is essential for type 1 patients while it is required at later stage by the patients of type 2. Current insulin delivery systems are available as transdermal injections which may be considered as invasive. Several non-invasive approaches for insulin delivery are being pursued by pharmaceutical companies to reduce the pain, and hypoglycemic incidences associated with injections in order to improve patient compliance.

As a prognostic biomarker for progression ofdiabetic nephropathy, albuminuria fails in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Better urinary or plasma biomarkers are needed that can predict which diabetic patients are at highest risk for progression. Bhensdadia et al. report proteomic investigations that identified urinary haptoglobin as a potential prognostic biomarker for progressive diabetic nephropathy. Although as a single marker urinary haptoglobin adds little to albuminuria, together the two appear to provide better diagnostic accuracy thanalbuminuria alone. Excess adiposity is the most important risk factor for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (1). However, mechanisms whereby body fat induces insulin resistance in distant tissues are not well understood. Recent evidence indicates that obesity may be an inflammatory markers.

Several factors have to come together for a person to developtype 2 diabetes. Elements like nutrition and exercise are extremely important. However, type 2 diabetes also has a strong genetic component. Diabetes constitutes a major public health problem. Although substantial progress has been made in defining the genetic risk for specific subtypes of diabetes

The burden of diabetes is much higher for racial/ethnic minorities than for whites. Minorities have a higher prevalence of diabetes than whites, and some minorities have higher rates of diabetes-related complications and death. Research results help in understanding these disparities and ways to reduce them.

Diabetes, the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, is a chronic disease characterized by persistent hyperglycemia (high blood glucose levels). Significant advances have been made in recent years in relation to the pathogenesis of T2DM. This has significantly improved our knowledge of one of the most serious health threats in the world, allowing identification of genes and pathways involved in the development and progression of the disease. It has recently become possible to acquire molecular and genetic level information from an individual.

Dyslipidemia is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease in diabetes mellitus. The characteristic features of diabetic dyslipidemia are a high plasma triglyceride concentration, low HDL cholesterol concentration and increased concentration of small dense LDL-cholesterol particles.

There are many risk factors for type 2 diabetes such as age, race, pregnancy, stress, certain medications, genetics or family history, high cholesterol and obesity. However, the single best predictor of type 2 diabetes is overweight or obesity. Almost 90% of people living withtype 2 diabetesare overweight or have obesity. People who are overweight or have obesity have added pressure on their body's ability to use insulin to properly control blood sugar levels, and are therefore more likely to develop diabetes. The number of diabetes cases among American adults increased by a third during the 1990s, and additional increases are expected. This rapid increase in the occurrence of diabetes is mostly attributed to the growing prevalence of obesity in the United States.

The Bioinformatics/Computational Biology Service branch will provide basic capabilities to the Joslin Diabetes Center to analyze a wide range of high-throughput data. Housed on-site at the Joslin, the group and associated resources will be available to Joslin investigators and fellows who are either planning high-throughput experiments or need analysis of multi-scale data.

We prospectively followed 51,552 Finnish men and women 25–74 years of age without a history of Parkinson's disease at baseline. History of diabetes and other study parameters were determined at baseline using standardized measurements. Ascertainment of the Parkinson's disease status was based on the nationwide Social Insurance Institution's drug register data. Hazard ratios of incident Parkinson's disease associated with the history of type 2 diabetes were estimated. The entire spectrum of diabesity, including all of its complications–diabetes, elevated blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol–are simply downstream symptoms that result from problems with diet, lifestyle, and environmental toxins interacting with our unique genetic susceptibilities.Bariatric surgery may be an option for adults with severe obesity. Body mass index (BMI), a measure of height in relation to weight, is used to define levels of obesity. Clinically severe obesity is a BMI > 40 or a BMI > 35 with a serious health problem linked to obesity. Such health problems could be type 2 diabetes, heart disease, or severe sleep apnea (when breathing stops for short periods during sleep).

In pancreatic islet transplantation, cells are taken from a donor pancreas and transferred into another person. Once implanted, the new islets begin to make and release insulin. Researchers hope that islet transplantation will help people with type 1 diabetes live without daily injections of insulin. Xenotransplantation is the transplantation of living cells, tissues or organs from one species to another. Such cells, tissues or organs are called xenografts or xenotransplants.

A transplant of the pancreas is usually reserved for those with serious complications. Pancreas transplants are most often done when a patient also receives a new kidney. Beta cell regenerationevents pancreas transplant adds little further risk in this situation and offers big benefits. However, transplant surgery is risky. Each person needs to carefully weigh the potential benefits and risks.

Theendocrine systemis a network of glands that produce and release hormones that help control many important body functions, especially the body's ability to change calories into energy that powers cells and organs. The endocrine system influences how your heart beats, how your bones and tissues grow, even your ability to make a baby. It plays a vital role in whether or not you develop diabetes, thyroid disease, growth disorders, sexual dysfunction, and a host of other hormone-related disorders.

Pancreatic β-cells are the target of an autoimmune assault in type 1 diabetes, with invasion of the islets by mononuclear cells in an inflammatory reaction termed “insulitis,” leading to loss of most β-cells after prolonged periods of disease.

Stem cells are essentially undifferentiated cells that can be induced into becoming specialized cells that are tissue- or organ-specific, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

In some cases, such cells are sourced from embryonic tissue. Alternatively, it's possible to derive stem cells from prespecialized adult cells that are then reprogrammed to morph into an undifferentiated state. These are called induced pluripotent stem cells.

Conference Series Ltd invites all the participants across the globe to attend the 25th Global Diabetes Summit and Medicare Expo on December 04-05, 2017 at Dubai, UAE but with the special focus on the theme Innovative Research in Diabetes Treatment. We believe we have chosen a venue that guarantees a successful scientific Conference.

With the success of conference on various clinical, medical and management science, Conference series Ltdis going to organize a conference on 25th Global Diabetes Summit and Medicare Expo. The previous Diabetes congresses were held at Santa Clara-USA, Philadelphia-USA, Hyderabad-India, Chicago-USA and Las Vegas-USA had achieved a grand success. Now it is the time for the diabetes meetings to address new challenges and emerging issues in Diabetes. Diabetes Congress-2017 will also provide the excellent opportunity to meet Physicians, Researchers, Clinicians, Experts, Directors, Professors, Associate Professors, Podiatrists, Pharmacists, Physician assistants, Nurse practitioners, Nurses, Dietitians, Certified diabetes educators, other health care professionals and who manage diabetes related complications.

Diabetes has increasingly become a lifestyle-related disease as it afflicts young and old. According to WHO Diabetes was estimated to affect 371 million people till the end of 2011in US. Whereas, new figures indicate that the number of people living with diabetes is expected to rise from 371 million in 2012 to 552 million by 2030. This indicates an urgent alarm for its management.

"Regionally, we saw the largest increase in diagnosed diabetes prevalence in the South, followed by the West, Midwest, and Northeast," with CDC's Division of Diabetes Translation and lead author of the report. "These data also reinforce findings from previous studies, which indicate that the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes is highest in the southern and Appalachian states."

As the number of patients grows across the globe, there has never been a stronger and more urgent need for therapeutic measures that arrest the growth of the disease and alleviate its secondary manifestations. In Type 1 diabetes total β-cell loss occurs. In Type 2 diabetes, partial β-cell loss occurs before diagnosis, and the progressive β-cell loss during the life of the patient increases the severity of the disease. This addresses novel therapies for these deficiencies in clinical and preclinical evaluation.

Many International Conferences and Diabetic therapies meetings/ symposium and workshops have been organized on different topics related to the risk factors related to diabetes across the globe such as glucose tolerability conference, diabetes stem cell cure conference, anti-diabetic agents meetings, obesity conferences, weight loss conferences, Islet transplantation international conference, glucose variability conferences etc. Besides that many international events such as diabetes alternative medicines events, insulin pump therapy events, pancreatic dysfunction events, recombinant approaches for diabetes events etc. Targeted Therapy Events have been also taking place in order to find a weapon against fatal diseases like diabetic foot, insulin resistance, glucose tolerability, obesity and to discuss the role of diabetes in cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, risk of cancer and intolerability to cure the wound which will gives a better insight about the associated causes and disease portfolio.

Why in Dubai

The UAE has the second-highest diabetes rate in the world, with an estimated 20% of residents and 25% of nationals suffering from the disease. Nearly three-quarters of diabetes patients in the UAE do not have their diabetes under control, a challenge particularly pronounced among children and young adults. It is estimated that 40 to 50% of diabetics in the UAE are unaware they even have the disease. Left unchecked, the spread of diabetes portends devastating social and fiscal consequences, including threats to economic progress and investment stability in the region.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has achieved an impressive level of economic development. In particular, its healthcare sector is among the best performing in the world. By many measures of health status (infant mortality, life expectancy, eradication of numerous infectious diseases), the UAE has reached levels comparable with other developed nations. In addition, the health infrastructure which includes facilities, equipment, and staff, are of high quality. This healthcare is offered freely or at low-cost to citizens and highly subsidised to residents and tourists. The fact that the UAE has made such great strides in achieving a high level of excellence in accommodating the healthcare needs of so many people is a testament to wise resource management policies. However, at least one health pandemic threatens to unravel the system’s stability: diabetes. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) call diabetes the 21st century’s leading healthcare challenge. Diabetes complications and mortality create social and economic challenges that affect individuals, families, businesses, and society as a whole. Six Middle East North Africa (MENA) region countries – Bahrain, Egypt, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) – are among the world’s 10 highest for prevalence of diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance. By 2020, 32% of the adult UAE population (age 20-79) may have diabetes or pre-diabetes, while other data indicate that the adult UAE population (ages 18 and above) has already reached a diabetes or pre-diabetes rate of 44%. If trends continue, the IDF projects that by 2030, the number of people with diabetes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region will almost double, reaching 59.7 million.
